almost over

Just a few hours out of Brest and Thomas Coville’s bid to become the fastest solo sailor around the world nearly ended with a whimper. Check out this Sodeb’O start video and pay special attention after the 2:30 mark to see just how close Coville was to a very, very bad day. Keep your eyes on the Ocean Racing Anarchy thread for the latest on Thomas’ progress against the almost mythical trip that Francis Joyon took to achieve this very record.

After 19 years in publication, Sailing Anarchy has remained true to its roots as a community oriented, edgy sailing publisher. We have long been, and will continue to be, the leader in providing inside stories, great reports from around the globe, along with the informative, snarky, profane coverage that you have come to expect. Others come and go, dilly dally with bullshit, while we remain Anarchists to the core.
